The Fairmont Room at The Occidental Hotel


An elegant and relaxed room, furnished in pale blues and warm woods, the Fairmont adheres to the traditional Occidental aesthetic. This room functions as the venue’s first floor restaurant and is therefore well-suited to lunch or evening dining functions, accommodating up to 100 seated guests. As a venue, the Fairmont’s menu has an emphasis on steaks, whilst its wine list has previously been nominated for ‘Restaurant Wine List of the Year’ (2010). The Fairmont can also be hired for stand-up events, accommodating up to 120 people with the option of canapes and beverage packages.

Look. You get what you get, at a price. But I wish I checked the reviews. I am from a regional area, so the city noise and light was just too much for me. The rooms are above bars and function rooms - so I only stopped hearing people at about 12/12:30am. I’m not sure if it is the same during the weekend, but the dump trucks started at 03:00. The windows might as well not be there, no sound insulation. The offices across the road leave there lights on, so even with the blinds down, the room was lit the whole night. Location is hard to rate because it is close to the public access routes and the city. So if that’s what you’re after - it’s a win. But if you want to sleep… maybe consider spending a bit more. Food was well priced and delicious though.

Our stay at Occidental Hotel Wynyard was enjoyable. The shared spaces were clean, although room cleaning only happened once a week during our 14-day stay. It's worth noting that there is no reception. We did experience noise on two nights from a neighboring couple, and the room insulation wasn't ideal. Despite this, our overall experience was good. The convenience and comfort outweighed the minor inconveniences, earning it a solid 4/5.

We had a great time at the hotel. The rooms are clean, so are the bathrooms. Even if shared, as a women I felt very safe to use it even at night. The staff was very friendly, they kept our bags during the day after check out too. Some people seem to expect intercontinental standard for 60$…yes naturally you will have road noise, but what do you expect in a city? Cannot complain about bar noise, we stayed only Sunday night when the bar was closed.

Our room had an odd sound coming from the walls, perhaps a pipe or pump or something. We went downstairs and asked about it, they said they'd look into it but never did. Other than that the room was fine, average. Good location. Nothing too notable.

We cannot comment on rooms/accommodation as we dropped into this pub later in the evening after a work function. This establishment is a bit shambles and the toilets downstairs are dungeon like, but it still had some charm about it. The staff were helpful and kind and we met some very considerate patrons.
